The Committee is satisfied that appropriate processes have been followed and concludes that Hizballah’s External Security Organisation continues to meet the definition of a terrorist organisation, namely that the organisation:
Is directly or indirectly engaged in, preparing, planning assisting in or fostering the doing of a terrorist act; or
Advocates the doing of a terrorist act.
The Committee therefore supports the re-listing of this organisation under the Criminal Code and finds no reason to disallow the legislative instrument.
However, the Committee has made recommendations regarding expanding the listing of Hizballah.
